His Sunday Nose.

II once knew sea captain who came

Mrs. BlXby became convinced the other

A Line Worth Drawing.

One of the most marked distinct
ions of the age is reading; every
where, by everybody, and about
everybody, reading Books chase
each other on their subjects, in as
hasty fight and succession, as Au-
gust clouds of gnats on a country by
way.
The greatest readers, it ought to be
understood, do not read the most
books. They choose what they
read.
And that is the true line to draw.
What can you read with profit?
Any one can read a good biography.
There are few of them. But the
story of what man actually said
and did is always instructive and
likely to be entertaining.
One may never read an aimless
novel with profit. The great major
ity of novels go into this class.
Between these two lie the books
for everybody. AS your taste for
pursuing knowledge goes between
these you will gain or fritter away
opportunity.
For opportunity to use knowledge
lies close to having the knowledge.
And profit to you individually is
twin to opportunity.
